Two Drinks In

Episode 191: Have you ever wondered what colloquialisms are uniquely Midwest? Well Dana has, and tonight he starts the episode with a game for the gang, asking them if they can figure out what he is saying by using common Midwest slang. Oh for crying in the sink! Speaking of fun and games, Dana reads a listener query asking that age-old question – how do we handle the holidays in this heated political climate. Drinking may seem like the obvious answer, but the gang has a few additional suggestions. Finally, James asks the TDI crew to “silver line” a few headlines, this time from Minnesota. Hey, Florida can’t have all the fun! Don’t let the Minnesota accents fool ya!  These two gays and two gals are solving the world’s problems one drink at a time.

Episode 161: Fresh off the holidays, it seemed like the perfect time to discuss gratitude — at least in regards to receiving gifts.

Wonderland it isn’t! Next, D. Marie discusses the “humble” return of Louis CK to stand-up comedy after admitting to sexual misconduct with multiple women. Remorse never sounded less funny.
